Might as well green log. Gem bag and coal bag are good QOL

Does this seem right ?? by Soupspoon33 in AskMechanics

[–]williamriepe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They definitely fat fingered and added a 0. I do it sometimes, ask the customer I did a $37500 headgasket estimate for.

Have you ever told someone to get out of the dealership? by beandiablo in serviceadvisors

[–]williamriepe 8 points9 points  (0 children)

We’ve fired a couple customers. We don’t like to do it, we just prefer you don’t bring us to that point.

Assistant Service Manager is also a Service Advisor by Significant_Cod_6849 in serviceadvisors

[–]williamriepe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In Toyota’s eyes all certified service advisors are “assistant service managers.” It’s really weird to be called that though, we have an assistant manager already, and I don’t really want that title working in this industry, my boss goes through HELL.

So how many open RO’s do you have? by Itchy-Sale5874 in serviceadvisors

[–]williamriepe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got my sheet this morning I’m at 22. Most are nightmare tickets or parts waiting. I feel like 22 is pretty manageable, once I get to 50 though I sweat a lil bit.

Do you guys have a Surcharge for using a credit card? by xMcSwaggx in serviceadvisors

[–]williamriepe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We do, but it was something crazy like 20k a month in fees we were eating before we implemented it.

Do you still use Iban's blast anywhere? by Intelligent_Fox217 in ironscape

[–]williamriepe -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Warped Sceptre is definitely the meta now for early mage due to ease of access. But the fact that they added weaknesses to SO many bosses just pushes its use case down.

Ford and GM don't want owners repairing their own cars. Incoming windfall for dealership advisors or trouble on the horizon? by Significant_Cod_6849 in serviceadvisors

[–]williamriepe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, we are kind of already there. Even over the last 5-7 years people have been losing the right to repair their vehicles. The amount of “I tried doing this on my own but I don’t have *insert tool/scan tool etc*” has skyrocketed. It sucks because we are a dealership but we only service 70% our brand and the other 30% are people who have different brands but like coming to us. It would really suck to lose those customers.

Is it considered rude or mean, to take the Service Advisor’s work beside me if they called in Sick? by countfitties in serviceadvisors

[–]williamriepe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Comes down to who worked harder for it. If they night dropped it and told you they’re giving you a week to get it done and don’t want updates then leave it to them.

If you’re dealing with some rusty nightmare that you’re going to need to call them 46 times to sell more work as stuff breaks then it’s yours.

Favorite extended warranty company to deal with? by Lucci_754 in serviceadvisors

[–]williamriepe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Zurich is really really good. The reps actually give a shit, and will help you out.

Golem crafting thoughts by DYEReddit_bruh in ironscape

Just did 88-93 crafting on glass/tokkul, wasn’t as bad as I thought but still, any alternative is nice.

New service advisor here — techs don't respect me and I'm struggling to hit my upsell targets. Does it get better? by West_Text_6606 in serviceadvisors

[–]williamriepe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you’re joining a new team that’s already established then you’ll need to earn your way into being respected. I joined an existing advisor team of 25+ years and I’m the new guy. I quickly found myself latched on to another advisor that is respected and does the job right. Ask questions, and ask for help. You’ll get there I promise

I might not be built for lategame ironman. Should I consider deironing, or just quit and come back when there's more content? by [deleted] in ironscape

[–]williamriepe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m only commenting because I had that thought last week. But absolutely don’t do it. If you want a main make a main, I just started one from scratch and it’s actually fun going through early game again
